The timing of the three-team trade that sent Iman Shumpert to the Cavaliers on January 5th was likely influenced more by the looming leaguewide contract guarantee date than by any other factor.

Luc Mbah a Moute is on the Philadelphia 76ers for two reasons. First, he was a cheap expiring contract that the Philadelphia 76ers could commit to for the short term in the Thaddeus Young trade. Second, he is tight with fellow Cameroonian Joel Embiid.

I don&#039;t know about all of you, but I didn&#039;t expect much from the Sixers tonight. Even though they bested the Pistons in their first meeting this season, Detroit has won 1o of their last 12 games and wasn&#039;t about to let the Sixers get in the way of that streak.

The Philadelphia 76ers brutally lost to the Golden State Warriors by 40 points on Tuesday night. Does anything else need to be said? The 76ers allowed 28 turnovers and shot 38.4 percent from the field. Their offense simply could not find rhythm against the best scoring team in the league.

It&#039;s interesting to try and figure out what works and what doesn&#039;t with a 4-25 team. Obviously it&#039;s easy to assume that nothing works with the Sixers, but that&#039;s not the case.

The Orlando Magic, in the midst of a four-game home stretch, are in need of a Christmas miracle.

The Magic had four seconds to separate themselves from a victory and another five-minute slog to fight and scratch for a win. At this point in the season, no team can panic too much about their record but 0-5 looks really bad. So Jacque Vaughn had to draw up a play for a final shot.

When discussing Jordan Hill, forget that Hill was once the 8th overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft. Hill was drafted by the Knicks and with their front office, it makes sense.

Welcome to the Daily NBA Fix for Sunday, April 13, the morning after the Atlanta Hawks and Dallas Mavericks punched their playoff tickets with victories.

Good morning, the Sixers lost again&#33; Not a surprise to anyone. The Sixers dropped this game to the Grizzlies, 117-95. Giving up 117 points to a team that lacks offensive power like the Grizzlies shows where the defense of the Sixers is at and it&#039;s not anywhere to be proud of.

The 2013-2014 Philadelphia 76ers have been a trial season in many ways. The roster seems to change weekly and even the team picture that was taken last week is outdated.

Earlier this season Henry Sims was wasting away on the bench of the Cleveland Cavaliers until Feb. 20 rolled around and he was shipped off to the Philadelphia 76ers in the Spencer Hawes trade. In the NBA sometimes all you need is an opportunity; and it looks like Sims got just that with this move. .2014-04-05 12:37:234/5: The Sixer Sense- Philadelphia 76ers Daily Links: April 5th, 2014http://thesixersense.com/2014/04/05/philadelphia-76ers-daily-links-april-5th-2014/
The Sixers are on a winning streak -- again&#33; With a defeat of the Celtics last night, the Sixers have now won two of their last four games. That&#039;s some sort of winning streak, right?

Somehow, the Sixers have won two of their last four&#33; It&#039;s kind of at the point where it&#039;s almost reality that the Sixers won&#039;t catch Milwaukee, so this win isn&#039;t necessarily a bad thing -- especially when MCW and Henry Sims have monster games.

As has been discussed ad nauseam in recent reports on Andrew Bynum, the NBA&#8217;s contract guarantee deadline for 2013/14 arrives later today. If a team waives a player on a non-guaranteed contract by 4:00pm central time, that club won&#8217;t be on the hook for the remainder of the player&#8217;s2014-01-07 10:36:471/5: Cleveland Sports Insiders- The Sunday Drive with Bynum trades, New Coaches and BASEBALL!!!http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ClevelandSportsInsiders/~3/LikARGlt6TI/
I&#8217;ve said it before, and I&#8217;ll say it again: an Andrew Bynum for Pau Gasol trade makes zero sense unless you foolishly believe that the Cleveland Cavaliers can either be a factor in the playoffs or sign Gasol long-term.

Less than two weeks remain before teams have to make decisions about whether to pick up the full-season salaries forÂ players on non-guaranteed contracts. The leaguewide guarantee date is January 10th, but those players would have to be released no later than January 7th to clear waivers in time.

This past offseason, the Spurs extended then-restricted free agent Gary Neal a qualifying offer worth about $1.1MM, which was significantly below the two-year, $7.5MM agreement he eventually reached with the Bucks.

Expiring contracts aren&#8217;t quite as coveted in trades as they used to be, in part because the shorter deals called for in the latest collective bargaining agreement makes them a plentiful commodity. They&#8217;re nonetheless useful trade chips as teams look to clear cap room for a star-studded 2013-12-12 12:36:1712/11: HoopsRumors- Odds & Ends: Collins, Augustin, Mavs, Cavshttp://www.hoopsrumors.com/2013/12/collins-augustin-cavs.html
Jannero Pargo&#8216;s contract with the Bobcats became fully guaranteed when the team didn&#8217;t waive him yesterday, and A.J.

The timing of the Lakers release of Elias Harris yesterday was financially motivated, and it had to do with the $100K partial guarantee on his contract. It&#8217;s the same calculus that would have forced the Cavaliers to release Matthew Dellavedova yesterday if they wanted to avoid paying him more 2013-11-30 15:36:2511/27: HoopsRumors- Players Still Not Trade-Eligible After Dec. 15thhttp://www.hoopsrumors.com/2013/11/players-eligible-after.html

A 10-day contract is a chance for a player to either establish his NBA career or to revive it. Still, even if they&#8217;re able to stick once the 10 days are over, most of the guys who sign the shortest of contracts don&#8217;t manage more than a brief foray into the Association.

The Bucks overhauled their roster this summer, and they&#8217;re without four of the five players who averaged double figures in points for them last season. Still, they&#8217;re one of five teams that Joel Brigham of HoopsWorld believes is capable of overachieving and grabbing a playoff berth.

It took a while for Roger Mason Jr. to land with an NBA team this offseason, as Mason didn&#8217;t sign with the Heat until late September. However, that doesn&#8217;t mean there was no other interest in the veteran shooter. According to Ethan J.

Phenom point guard Damian Lillard led the league in minutes played last season. At 3,167, he played a whole game, 48 minutes, more than runner-up Kevin Durant.
